A lot of founders get stuck here. It’s fixable.
You Sell a Bottle for $50. Here's What You Keep.

Online Supplement Business Accounting FAQs
Why does my supplement brand make sales but little profit?
A bottle costs more than the factory bill. Packing, delivery, discounts, ads and expired stock all come out of each sale.
How do I know which supplements make money?
We work out the profit on each product and each channel every month. Then you can see what to reorder and what to cut.
How do you handle expired or damaged stock?
We track stock by batch, so old batches show up before they expire. Stock you can’t sell comes out of your inventory value.
Do I need to charge US sales tax on supplements?
Only in states where you have nexus, and only if that state taxes supplements. Amazon usually collects on its own sales. Your Shopify store is up to you.
What is nexus?
It’s the point where a state can make you collect its sales tax. You can reach it by selling past that state’s limit, or by keeping stock there, like in an Amazon warehouse.
Can you handle both Canadian and US taxes?
Yes. GST/HST, corporate tax and US filings are all done by one team, so nothing falls between two accountants.
Is a deposit to my co-packer an expense?
Not right away. It stays a deposit until your stock arrives. Then it becomes inventory, and it counts as a cost when the bottles sell.
How are free samples recorded?
When samples leave your warehouse, we take them out of stock and usually count them as marketing. That keeps your stock count and product profit right.
How do you account for subscriptions?
How do you account for subscriptions?
We keep discounts, skips, failed payments and refunds separate. Prepaid plans count as earned when each order ships, not when the card is charged.
Do you work with Shopify, Amazon and subscription apps together?
Yes. Most of our clients sell in more than one place. Everything goes into one set of books.
How much does supplement accounting cost?
A fixed monthly fee, agreed before we start. Plans start from $800 a month. Our pricing calculator gives you a number in about a minute.
